DoD Issue: Glitch or intended?

[Dude388]

I came across an odd occurence today while flying LB for US on Ramiel.

I was returning to base from a successful CAS request and to avoid a known AA sight (had 2 techie's waiting) I had to fly over the Mosque.

While approaching the Mosque I saw another techie heading my way from the east so while over the Mosque I did a hard 90 degree right turn to move out of their range....

But for some reason the DoD timer kept counting down even though I was past the Mosque.

It took me 3 secs to realize it was still counting and I was able to successfully manage an emergency landing just outside the base by the pond.

I managed to save the LB...but my character still died.

So I'm wondering if this was a glitch with the DoD....or if it's intended to keep LBs from continuosly flying over the Mosque? (seeing as how I entered then exited the DoD twice in less than 5 seconds).

Doom of Death is bugged alot as i experienced. So since it is intended to restart counting when you reenter is probably is a bug.

Yeah they increased the DOD On most maps.

On ramiel i think all mosques got there dod extended about 40 or 50 meteres more out to prevent camping.

The insurgent main has also had its DOD extended quite a bit.

Test it out in singleplayer.

You always have to be a further distance away from the dod for the timer to start than you were when it started for it to stop for some reason.
